also dunno why people keep cussing out the ml bc ngl ogfl was not only their family's enemy but she was obsessed as hell with him to the point it became a bother, if it was me i wouldve been weirded tf out too. people often forget that its easy to look at things as a third party, but when you are in the situation, without knowing the future, you just do your best for yourself and your loved ones. i hope people can give them a bit of grace. except for cleo and the emperor fuck them honestly.
wait no i changed my mind fuck the emperor only hes the only bastard here
fuck cleo and the emperor they the real villains, everyone else only acted the best they could in their situation.
